Use of Detail Reports over long time periods
Reports of web browsing activity over long time periods (weeks and/or months) require much more memory, processor time, and disk I/O to generate. For better performance, run summary reports across long time periods on a regular schedule, then use detail reports only for investigating specific users in shorter time periods. If you have business requirements that demand generating detail reports across a large time window, you can:
- Schedule the reports to run during low-activity periods in your network.
- Invest in more hardware resources for your reporting system.
